Long & ugly...  Ever been kicked in the junk by a track?

Guess what our bedtime story was last night? I recited your race report from memory.  I hope Jen's feeling better and Q, too.  

As for you, I know you're not ok.  You're coming back for more!

LOL...  Hope your man enjoyed it :)

Queue's back to normal (well, whatever that is).  Jen's coming around slowly.  This morning she was actually able to bend over a little bit, and can almost keep pace while walking.  I'm hoping by next weekend she'll be back enough to man the tire warmers.

You guys making it to BHF?

Hey Heather, what? is "bicycle boy" afraid? Poooosy!

Hey Jeff, you have no idea how lucky you were not getting hit on that start when you stalled! I got hit on the arm by a rider that was swearving to avoid you! He came pretty close to you, I would say.

I'd say it was proportionate to the amount of SH1T I left in my leathers and prayers instantly shouted out...

My only saving grace was having quick reacting riders around me and a small grid.

That is not a moment I will ever forget...

Atleast Jeff had his hands up in the air. A certain someone sat there trying to start his bike when I hit him a few years ago. Friggin Minnesota jerks.  ;)

Watcha talking bout Willis?  

I don't remember ever stalling on the grid? Much less having a slow ass 2-smoke passing me on the start!

There's another FORMER racer from MN, I believe Edger.  Everything is always about you!!!!

Afraid?  Hmmm.  No.  More brave than ever is how I'll put it.   ;)

Oooooh, I see! Hey, don't blame Minnesota for Lil' Thorny! If I am correct, he is from Cheese country!  ;D


Oh Jeff, BTW, you were not the cause of the crash in Turn 3. It had nothing to do with oil. A certain CBR rider friend of "Mr. Dovizioso" got squeezed off the track and crashed when his tires hit the grass. He took out a few people with him. I almost went down as well, but managed to come to a complete stop with him laying about 6 inches from my front tire. Just a racing incident.

I don't think anyone got hurt at all... Everyone got up and rode in, but it made for an interesting warm up lap on the restart, when we came around turn 3 and there was tons of dirt all over the track. Everyone put their hands up and came in, realizing that there was no way we could race on that. I guess they forgot to check to see if there was any debris on the track!

Thanks Edgar...  That was really bugging me...  I was down 1/2 quart of oil, and there's only so much that a boot can hold...
